Estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1) and progesterone receptor (PGR) are essential regulators for endometrial receptivity and embryo implantation. Their expression is dysregulated in women with endometriosis-associated infertility. However, the relat…

Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent inflammatory condition that affects approximately 10% of reproductive-age women and is frequently associated with infertility and pelvic pain. Unlike many estrogen-dependent disorders, epidemio…

Endometriosis-associated infertility is a complex condition in which the presence of endometrial-like tissue disrupts implantation and early pregnancy. Epigenetic regulators are critical for implantation and decidualization, yet their contr…

Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent inflammatory disorder frequently associated with infertility and characterized by progesterone resistance and impaired endometrial receptivity. While ectopic lesions define the disease, accumulating ev…

Abstract Text Estrogen receptors (ESRs) and progesterone receptor (PGR) are nuclear receptors that regulate signaling pathways in the endometrium that are critical for endometrial receptivity and the establishment of pregnancy. Endometriosi…

Endometriosis, characterized by the growth of uterine-like tissue outside the uterus, causes chronic pain and infertility. Current diagnostic and therapeutic strategies have notable limitations, including delayed diagnosis and adverse effec…

Over 75% of failed pregnancies involve implantation defects. Growth factor receptor-bound protein 2 (GRB2) is an adaptor protein involved in signal transduction and cell communication. Here we show that the expression of GRB2 protein is low…

Ovarian steroid hormones-estrogen and progesterone-play a central role in regulating epithelial-stromal interactions in the uterus. These interactions are critical for uterine function, including endometrial receptivity, implantation, and d…

Endometriosis, the growth of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus, causes chronic pain and infertility in 10 % of reproductive-aged women worldwide. Unfortunately, no permanent cure exists, and current medical and surgical treatments …

Endometriosis (EM) is a gynecological disease where endometrial tissue grows outside the uterus. Current diagnostic methods are mainly through surgical visualization with histological verification; there's a need for noninvasive approaches.…

Endometriosis is a benign gynecological condition in which endometrial-like tissue grows outside of the uterus, and the mechanisms of its pathogenesis are not fully understood. The anatomical and physiological parallels between pigs and hum…

OBJECTIVE: To identify the transcriptomic changes of ectopic lesions and eutopic endometrial tissues during the progression of endometriosis, we performed transcriptomic analysis in the eutopic endometrium and ectopic lesions. DESIGN: Labor…

Endometriosis is a condition of the female reproductive tract characterized by endometrium-like tissue growing outside the uterus. Though it is a common cause of pelvic pain and infertility, there is currently no reliable noninvasive method…

A growing body of work suggests epigenetic dysregulation contributes to endometriosis pathophysiology and female infertility. The chromatin remodeling complex subunit AT-rich interaction domain 1A (ARID1A) must be properly expressed to main…

Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory condition in women, and obesity leads to an inflammatory condition that is directly involved in the etiology of endometriosis. However, observational studies have shown an inverse correlation between …

Female subfertility is highly associated with endometriosis. Endometrial progesterone resistance is suggested as a crucial element in the development of endometrial diseases. We report that MIG-6 is downregulated in the endometrium of infer…

Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) is a member of the sirtuin family that functions to deacetylate both histones and non-histone proteins. Previous studies have identified significant SIRT1 upregulation in eutopic endometrium from infertile women with endom…

CONTEXT: Progesterone resistance, a known pathologic condition associated with a reduced cellular response to progesterone and heightened estrogen responses, appears to have a normal physiologic role in mammalian reproduction. The molecular…

Are STAT3 signaling molecules differentially expressed in endometriosis?

Endometriosis, defined as the presence of endometrial cells outside of the uterine cavity, is a major cause of infertility and pelvic pain, afflicting more than 10% of reproductive age women. Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease …
